After Jordan Gruver, an American citizen of Panamanian descent, was beaten in July 2006 by two reputed Klansmen, he was left with serious injuries that included a broken jaw, broken arm, cracked ribs, and various cuts and bruises.
Now Gruver is fighting back in court against the Imperial Klans of America, hoping to win damages large enough to put the group out of business.
My personal hope is that such an event could occur, but my unfortunate guess is that even if the KKK were to go bankrupt, there would be other hate-filled people ready to take their place. Am I being too pessimistic? Weigh in your thoughts.

yes freedom of hate speech. freedom of all speech. unless that hate speech incites violence or other applicable law breaking, it is just hateful speech and should be protected.
